are you suppose to hear a clicking noise as you workout?

I had the same issue a few weeks after using it. With mine, it was a small gap between the arm and the wheel on the axle in back. I tied a small piece of string around the gap on the axle, sort of a washer, and it stopped the clicking sound.

That sound you are hearing is likely the in-body stabilization when you half-press the button. It is perfectly normal (if this is the use case scenario). If it just has this hum while not touching anything, sounds like you may have an issue.

Yes. I barely hear the click. I work using a headset so a loud click would be a problem for me. This Dell works fine for me.

No clicking noise. It wobbles a bit, but I'm using it on an uneven surface tile countertop. Generally it does the job and I'm pretty please with it.

The machine makes a loud click before playing or recording. It does not affect performance. We find newer electronics noisier than our older ones.

It does make a whirring sound, similar to any treadmill. Your foot-falls can also be heard, but because you're walking rather than running, there's not as much of a heavy impact sound. And finally, when first getting on there's a series of beeps as you step up the speed of the belt, and a final beep when you stop it to get off.Whether coworkers will find it too disturbing, I couldn't say. But they will know when you're on it. But like a lot of other sounds in the office (telephones, hall conversations, conference calls, etc), I think in time the treadmill sound would simply blend into the background.

Haven't noticed any clicking from mine, but then I'm not always in the particular room in which we use it. Is it like an electrical snapping sound, or more like a trickling water sound?

Hi Sue, I don't hear any clicking noises while its cycling cold/hot/cold. The unit is made of a few different kinds of metals and they probably contract and expand at different rates. The clicking might be the different parts subtly moving aginst each other, or the fry pan could just be haunted.

This mouse makes a clicking sound when you press the button. I've never actually worked with a mouse that was completely quiet when I browsed with it.

For small increment movements (like a few degrees), the sound is like "zip, zip" - kind of like what a robot sounds like. When it starts up or if there is like a large degree rotation movement, you'll definitely hear it if you're in a small room and there is no sound. It does sound like a robot's gears moving, but it's not loud. I've never heard any click noises before. But if it sounds like it's an abnormal grinding sound, the gears are probably worn or broken. It should be smooth sounding like a typical robot movement sound.

It does make a noise when it's turned on, which I would describe more as a loud click.

I didn't notice a loud noise but there is a clicking noise, as Jenny described.

My unit continues to run very quietly so listening to music or the TV while exercising is not a problem at all. I would contact Smooth's customer service folks to see if they have any suggestions to deal with the issue.

Hi Urbeautifl, I agree with Nancy it does have a clicking sound but it's not what I would consider loud. But you can hear it.

Do all of yours make that clicking noise when it is on? It seems like it shouldn't make that sound?

Definitely makes a clicking sound when you press the buttons. Also a bit of a different clicking noise when you scroll with the center wheel.

I think the click would be distracting, I use it to keep up with my reps while exercising, works great, fits in your hand.
